Existing law imposes restrictions upon a person's or beneficiary's entitlement to the estate of a decedent who was an elder or dependent adult if the person or beneficiary has committed certain acts against the decedent, including, but not limited to, physical abuse, neglect, or financial abuse. This bill would recast those provisions to instead provide that a person shall be deemed to have predeceased a decedent if he or she is liable for physical abuse, neglect, or financial abuse of the decedent pursuant to the Elder Abuse and Dependent Adult Civil Protection Act, or if that person has been convicted of a violation of provisions prohibiting willfully causing or permitting any elder or dependent adult to suffer, or inflicting thereon unjustifiable physical pain or mental suffering, or having the care or custody of any elder or dependent adult, willfully causing or permitting the person or health of the elder or dependent adult to be injured, or willfully causing or permitting the elder or dependent adult to be placed in a situation in which his or her person or health is endangered, as specified, in which the decedent was the victim. The bill would provide that any person who is deemed to have predeceased the decedent shall not receive any property, damages, costs, or restitution that are awarded to the decedent's estate whether that person's entitlement is under a will, a trust, or the laws of intestacy, nor serve as a fiduciary on behalf of the decedent's estate or trust.
